"Voters feel Connecticut's economy is going down the drain and they are sending Gov. Dannel Malloy's approval ratings right down the same drain. Even Democrats disapprove of the way he is doing his job," poll director Doug Schwartz said in a statement.

Eighty percent of those surveyed said the state's economy is "not so good" or "poor," while 74 percent say jobs are difficult to find.

The survey of 1,330 voters has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.7 percentage points.
